44 views2 pages

Document Summary

Alkyl halide: compound containing a halogen atom covalently bonded to an sp3 hybridized c atom, given symbol rx. Haloalkanes are named alkyl halides, where the name is derived by naming alkyl group followed by name of the halide as a separate word. Nucleophile: atom / group that donates pair of electrons to another atom / group to form a new covalent bond. Nucleophilic substitution: reaction in which one nucleophile is substituted for another: halide ions are among best and most important leaving groups. Elimination: removal of atoms / groups from 2 adjacent c atoms. Substitution reactions always result in the replacement of atom / group in a reactant with another atom / group. Elimination reactions always result in removal of a h and an atom / group on adjacent c atoms and in the formation of a c-c double bond.
